Massachusetts Real Estate Attorneys for Buyers, Sellers, and Investors
Attorneys Jim and Steve Brady & Associates is a family-run law firm in Walpole, Massachusetts, handling residential and commercial real estate throughout the Commonwealth. We represent buyers, sellers, investors, lenders, and commercial tenants from the first offer to the closing table. We establish title, review and revise your Purchase and Sale Agreement, examine every closing document, and account for every dollar that changes hands. We’ve been doing it since 1985.
Buying your first home. We read the fine print you don't have time for and track the inspection and financing deadlines that cost buyers their deposit.
Selling your home. We draft the Purchase and Sale so the terms protect you, not just the buyer's lender.
Purchasing office or retail space. We check zoning, permits, and use restrictions before you're locked in.
Investing in property. We verify title, easements, and tenant obligations so you know exactly what you are buying.
Signing a commercial lease. We negotiate the clauses landlords count on you skipping, from escalations to personal guarantees.
One sentence in the wrong place can cost more than every fee on your closing statement. Call us, and we'll take the stress out of buying or selling.
Meet the Attorney Who Will Handle Your Closing
Attorney Jim Brady explains what a real estate lawyer does for you, and why the answer is more than showing up on closing day.
What Massachusetts Buyers and Sellers Say
The feedback we hear most often is the same three words: you make it easy.
Jim’s staff was exceptional when it came to communication and ensuring all the necessary information was exchanged between parties. From drafting the Purchase & Sale to reviewing all the documents on closing day, they made the process incredibly easy. I cannot emphasize enough how much of a stress reliever it was working with them.
– Alex K.
From First Offer to Final Signature, You're Covered
Alex K. came to us mid-transaction with a closing date on the calendar and a stack of documents he had not been walked through. Our team drafted the Purchase and Sale, kept information moving between both sides so nothing stalled, and reviewed every document on closing day before he signed a page. His words afterward: "They made the process incredibly easy. I cannot emphasize enough how much of a stress reliever it was working with them."
At Attorneys Jim and Steve Brady & Associates, we advise you at every step, from the initial offer to executing the Purchase and Sale Agreement to conducting the closing itself. Simple transaction or complicated dispute, we protect you.

How We Handle Residential and Commercial Deals
Buying or Selling a Home
We establish clear title to the property, review and revise the Purchase and Sale Agreement, scrutinize the closing documents, make sure every one of them is properly signed and delivered, and account for all proceeds paid in and out. When the home inspection comes back with a problem, or financing gets complicated, we tell you what your options are. If you still need a lender or a broker, we’ll point you to people we trust.
You'll know what's happening and what comes next, every step, without having to chase anyone for an answer.

Commercial Property, Leases, and Lending
We handle commercial title examination and title insurance, closings for banks and commercial lenders, and representation for lenders and borrowers alike. We negotiate contracts, create easements and handle compliance and appeals, and work through land permitting and zoning. If your deal involves a municipality, a lender, and a deadline, we’ve done it before, many times.

Real Estate Questions We Hear a Lot
-
For a financed purchase, yes, an attorney is required at the closing. The question is whether that attorney works for you or for the lender. We represent you, from the offer forward.
-
Before. Once an offer is accepted, the clock starts on inspection and financing deadlines, and the terms are already set. A call before you sign costs you nothing and can change the whole deal.
-
We give you an estimate up front and explain what’s included. No surprises on your closing statement.
-
Yes. We handle transactions throughout the Commonwealth and can manage most of the process remotely.
-
We’re there. We review every document before you sign, confirm all funds are accounted for, and resolve problems in the room rather than after the fact.
